Learn What Corporations Must Consider When Thinking About Virtualization Within the Network

SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwire - Sep 14, 2011) - ADARA Networks announced today that Dr. Siva "Raj" Rajagopalan, Research Scientist at HP Labs and part of the Hewlett-Packard/ADARA Networks team, will speak at this year's InfoSec 2011 conference in Nashville, TN, on Thursday, September 15, 2011. HP and ADARA have combined to provide MachNet, a unique product platform that virtualizes the entire network, optimizing existing infrastructure and applications and dramatically improving network performance while providing unmatched quality-of-service and security guarantees. Dr. Rajagopalan was a key member of the DARPA-sponsored HP team that developed CHART, and the team that produced ZBAC, key precursor technologies to MachNet. Given Dr. Rajagopalan's experience, he is uniquely positioned to present on these issues and provide attendees with take-aways on the potential of virtual networks to address the networking and information technology challenges of the 21st century.

Now in its 11th year and presented by the Nashville Technology Council and Middle Tennessee chapter of Information Systems Security Association, InfoSec 2011 is the Southeast's leading security conference and brings together leading technologists and security professionals from across North America. Held at the Nashville Convention Center, this year's theme, "Security (R)evolution," focuses on technical and management issues, as well as healthcare and other industry regulations in the security industry.

As the network environment evolves to meet current demands, it is imperative for corporations to learn how to keep up with these demands and not lose efficiencies. Network virtualization gives corporations the overarching view into the network in a way that hasn't been done before. Dr. Rajagopalan's presentation will address what corporations must consider when thinking about virtualizing their network, in particular, what the benefits of a Virtual Custom Network can offer, such as precise resource isolation, selective, fine-grained access control and connectivity. In addition, Dr. Rajagopalan will also speak to the HP/ADARA MachNet solution, which helps implement Virtual Custom Networks as overlays on existing networks to solve a number of acute problems such as congestion control, traffic prioritization, and access to sensitive data and information.
